Exploring Advances in Primary Immunodeficiencies: Expert Interview

This activity aims to increase the knowledge and competence of immunologists, allergists, primary care providers and other clinicians involved in the management of patients with primary immunodeficiencies (PI). Differences in how clinicians manage patients with primary immunodeficiencies underscore areas where improved educational and training initiatives may benefit patient care.

In this activity, expert faculty Richard L. Wasserman, MD, PhD provides brief, one-two minute overviews of screening procedures, diagnosis, and management considerations for patients with PI. The activity features a set of short, effective, and connected lessons that affords clinicians the opportunity to absorb relevant clinical information without the need to devote significant time to learning.

This activity is designed to meet the educational needs of immunologists, allergists, primary care providers and other clinicians involved in the management of patients with primary immunodeficiencies.

Upon completing this activity, participants will be able to:
• Identify patients who are at risk for PI through patient history and appropriate laboratory studies
• Develop individualized IG administration treatment plans for patients with PI taking into consideration their clinical needs and frequency preferences
• Participate in shared decision making to enhance patient outcomes
